I'm seeing the very same problem.

I have setup with two channels, base and updates, both are repo synched with  
cron.daily script running /usr/bin/spacewalk-repo-sync.
Sync goes fine every day and repodata looks good.
Only in WebUI on the System Overview I see no change, it still shows all  
systems as a ok, not a single warning even though repo sync got
several new packages. And yes, running yum update on client *or* scheduling an  
update from WebUI does update relevant rpm packages.

One *VERY* interesting tidbit - if I select particular system that does not  
show available packages and select `Alter Channel Subscriptions`
submenu then at that point unselect channel, confirm it, and *select* it back  
and confirm, packages *does* show on the System Overview now.
But only for that particular system and no, selecting several systems and  
using SSM does not work.

I'd like to know that too or at least point us where to look for errors, logs  
or smthng.
